    I like it when it's used to give a sureal effect, like a "something is wrong" feeling like in dreams or hallucinations or others
    It is heavily (and cleanly I would say) used in Little Misfortune, it fits the artstyle and the feel of the game quite well

    This was important to know about when we still used photography to create maps. The camera lens at Cartography School was 150mm, and was considered small. So the usable part of the image was only in the middle part of the lens, to remove chromatic abberation (and spherical abberation).
    Now the printing is all done electronically.

    Bravo. I was just watching Digital Foundry's analysis of the ResE4 remake "chainsaw demo". When they started talking about the CA implementation, I asked myself "when and why did CA become a thing in games?" Your video does a great job of speaking to this. I really appreciate your recap of ALL the things game devs have done to recreate optical artifacts (including the abuse of bloom once upon a time). Great, concise video. Thank you.

    Pixel Prophecy brought me here lol. I truly enjoyed this video. While playing Jedi Fallen Order I toggled multiple video settings. I truly see the developer Respawn is trying to create a movie like experience for the player. Sometimes I prefer these options to be disabled because it seems to present a sharper and clearer looking game. Then there are times I like the options turned on during an action sequence because I feel more immersed in the scene.
    Thank you again for the educational videos.

Either everyone already knew what chromatic aberration was or they went somewhere else because I’m honestly surprised.

    the problem that people have with CA is that a lot of games just do chromatic aberration as a circular effect distorting/bluring the edges of the screen or even worse apply it to every surface. that's just a stupid and unnecessary effect.
    when done right chromatic abberation takes depth information into account and distorts only based on that (think a slight color distortion of the light shimmering though the leafs on a tree or the color distorion sunlight would cause on the edges of far away things such as buildings). another good way to use CA in games is when it's simply tied to a light source (think the color halo around really bright white light for example) or the resulting bouncing of that light source on different surfaces (think light reflecting on water, glass or really bright surfaces and the slight color distortion that produces on the fringes of the reflected light). modern games definetly use these things and they can look realistic and good when done right. but again, simply slaping on a circular filter that blurs and distorts the egdes of your screen is as much needed and therefore disliked as motion blur

    • @PixelProphecy
      @PixelProphecy  3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I like when it is applied subtly to areas involving direct sunlight, I find it makes it feel more like real light is bouncing around. Chromatic aberration DOES appear in our day to day life, it is just very subtle unless you go looking for it. Look closely at objects in direct sunlight on a very hot sunny day, and you will notice many things that at a glance appear to be a single color, are in fact, prismatic.

    • @UnstoppableForces
      @UnstoppableForces ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Some stuff in video games I never even knew I hated until I built a PC and realized system management for shit like that and the fact PC gamers can turn it off. Chromatic aberration, film grain, motion blur, and lens flare unless it’s a game with an atmosphere I think does well with it like metro exodus because of the gas mask. Plus it’s pretty sometimes. Plus I like a super shallow FOV. Enough to not feel like quake or like I’m on a curved TVs that’s 50 feet long. High FOV feels like you’re on lsd and trying to put your keys in your door.

    I just wish they used a slider instead of just off or on for the effect.

    Like Lens Flare, i love Chromatic Aberation and used artisticaly or in some scenes are better in a lot of way than a cleaning ones by far.

    It really shouldn't be in a game at all for the simple reason some people are sensitive to it. It can cause them pain, tired eyes and many other issues. I have never really noticed it. My son however started saying about certain games that that game makes his eyes tired and he just stopped playing them after a while. I turned off chromatic abberation and he has no "tired eyes" anymore when playing it. I have begun to think that it is affecting me as well because after turning off CA in many games I noticed a real difference in how I was feeling after a long session of gaming. So maybe I was being affected and never knew it or maybe it's my imagination but I'm turning it off from now on in every game I play.

      Only if it's not overused like for example in Puppet Combo games.
      And those are extreme cases where it actually will hurt your eyes.

    I'm playing A Plague Tale for the first time and it has an option to turn off C.A. but I quite like it with it on. Haven't seen what it looks like with it off yet but that's my next youtube video, "Chromatic Aberration on and off in A Plague Tale."

    i am guilty of using this too much, when i was developing my first game i found the post processing stack in unity and i was like "what does this do? *click* amazing. leave it on" and the game was scene-wise super simple, a flat ground, a player cube and cube obstacles, but it had chromatic aberration, motion blur, vignette, lens dirt, bloom, ambient occlusion, everything, lmao.

    • @PixelProphecy
      @PixelProphecy  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Haha I guess we've all been there. When everything else is so minimal, post effects seem like they help a lot with the visuals at first 😅
